In '63, a college buddy of mine bought a red R-Code Galaxie convertible with red interior right after graduation.  A 2nd LT., he shipped out to 'Nam but never returned home.  I got lucky being in the Navy and made it back.  "All gave some, some gave all".

It weighs around 3800lbs, but it does look like a lot more.
